You might check out DannyZ71's RK; nice looking exhaust. I came from a Heritage; you'll love the 'King.👍

Great choice on getting a Road King.

Have a look at Suppertrapp SE's many different end caps to chose from and the sound is just perfect IMO.

Nice bike Gunny.
Op congrats on the new bike , you will enjoy the King. I run a 2-1 exhaust Dragos Dragula 2 sound s good to me not loud at cruise.

I also went from a Fat Bob to a Road King, no regrets at all. And that Superior Blue is an awesome color.

I'm using the Screamin' Eagle Street Cannons (which I've heard are re-branded Supertrapp's) and they're perfect for me. I also have an S&S PowerTune Duals header to throw on soon. Enjoy that new King!

I had V&H BigShots on my FatBoy. When I went to my RKC, I installed V&H Power Duals and Monster Rounds. I think it's a great combo.
You're gonna love the King.

I have a 14 King and could not love it more. Congrats on your 15 King. Take your time on the stage-1 stuff. The HO Rushmore 103" has the power you need so you can look around at other RK and see what you like.
Give us pics when you get her.

Are you positive you want a Superior Blue one?

I am enjoying mine so far, just put another 200 miles on today.
